Project Lit

Project Lit is a monthly multi-grade book club where students employ choice and voice in their reading selections.  Students meet in groups and lead discussions based on their book choices.  While the club is overseen by Ms. Moore along with several ELA teachers, it is entirely student led.  Project Lit leaders meet with Ms. Moore to choose upcoming themes, choose the titles for the theme, and plan additional activities for the overall group.  One of the meetings even featured a book give away courtesy of Louder Than Hunger author John Schu.
